Thanks again Stefano, I had only considered trying to modify the public schema but as you say that’s not necessary, changing the cached version would do. Hmm.. perhaps we will do this for now, with the intention of changing the “real” schema eventually.

I'm afraid you're right: app-schema does not allow adding arbitrary attributes to a type, even if the type definition contains an xs:any element. You do need a regular element of type xs:anyType to support schema extensions. I was wondering if you could, as a temporary workaround, modify the geosciml-portrayal schema as such: <complexType name="BoreholeViewType"> <complexContent> <extension base="gml:AbstractFeatureType"> <sequence> ... <!-- original content --> <!-- any processContents="lax" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/--> <!-- new extension element of type xs:anyType --> <element name="extension" type="anyType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" /> ... </sequence> </extension> </complexContent> </complexType> And then you could define a mapping like this: <AttributeMapping> <targetAttribute>gsmlp:extension</targetAttribute> <targetAttributeNode>gsmlp:ContactViewPropertyType</targetAttributeNode> </AttributeMapping> <AttributeMapping> <targetAttribute>gsmlp:extension/gsmlp:ContactView/gsmlp:name</targetAttribute> <sourceExpression> <OCQL>name</OCQL> </sourceExpression> </AttributeMapping> I verified and it works. The generated GML would still be schema valid according to the original geosciml-portrayal schema and thus you wouldn't lose interoperability. The only "drawback" is that you need to deploy your own edited copy of the schema along with GeoServer and have your mapping configuration point to it, but this should not be an issue, is it? Hope this helps.

All the features in this schema have a “catch all” as their last element: <any processContents="lax" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/> XML Schemas are not really my speciality but I believe this means you can inject any elements you like at this point in your feature. Basically anything that is xml valid is schema valid. The problem is that geoserver doesn’t seem to be able to deal with the ambiguity of a completely open section of the schema. I have contacted one of the members of the group in charge of the schema and we will probably propose a change to an anyType element instead of the current one above. Thanks again Stefano.

The example given in the docs targets a tag named om:result, which is of type anyType (or some other generic type). In my case the schema doesn’t define a tag name at all, it just says “any elements can go in here”. As far as I understand, you do need a container element of type xs:anyType to be able to add "any elements" to your XML document AND have it validate against the schema. If your mapping is trying to produce invalid XML according to the schema, for sure GeoServer will have troubles with it... Could you share at least a relevant portion of your schema, to make sure we're on the same page? Thanks. -- Best regards, Stefano Costa == GeoServer Professional Services from the experts!
